  • TestDriven.NET Link Cosmos

    If you filled in the TestDriven.NET survey in the last couple of days, you will have seen a 'Show' option on the 'Weblog/Home Page' question. If you selected 'Show', then your link may appear on the TestDriven.NET website. Today I'm opening a new section on the site called the "LinkCosmos". For the moment, this is where user links will appear.

  • TestDriven.NET Launch Report

    Two weeks after the launch of TestDriven.NET 1.0, I'm still feeling quite giddy from the all positive feedback. I knew there were a few enthusiastic users out there, but I was quite taken aback by the response.  Thank you everyone for your support!  If it carries on like this I'm confident we will get integrated unit testing out to the masses. There is still a loooong way before every mort, elvis and einstein has heard of TestDriven.NET. Erring on the optimistic side, 0.1% of .NET developers have tried using the add-in. I like to think a few more than that could benefit from using it.

  • TestDriven.NET 1.0 - The Acid Test

    As you may have already noticed, TestDriven.NET 1.0 has finally been released!  In the stress and excitement of getting a golden build together, I didn't get a chance to blog about it myself before lighting the blue touch paper!  For what feels like months I've been working nights trying to ensure that TestDriven.NET works with all versions of Visual Studio .NET, for all languages, on all platforms, for all user types using any of the major unit testing frameworks. The compatibility matrix is daunting and there are a lot of dark and scary corners!  This couldn't possibly have happened without countless debugging sessions over email and Messenger with many individuals.  I would also like to thank people for their patience with the beta and RC version timeouts.  This kept the pressure on for new releases and gave new versions of the installer an important workout.  This has now been disabled and I'm not sure I will ever use timeouts again!
